Paintball in the Jerte Valley at Barrado

Context Paintball in the Jerte Valley takes place at a natural field located within Parque Aventura El Torno, in Barrado, Extremadura. This outdoor venue combines a dense woodland of pine and oak trees with uneven terrain, natural and themed obstacles, creating a highly realistic environment for gameplay. The forest spans a large area, allowing the activity to be adapted for groups aged 14 and older, and is available year-round.

The experience After a safety briefing and equipment distribution—including face mask, combat suit, and semi-automatic marker—players move through trees and natural cover. The sounds of the forest enhance the excitement as teams strategize to eliminate opponents. Monitors offer a variety of game modes and encourage teamwork, with matches lasting up to 3 hours. Biodegradable ammunition is used, which can be easily cleaned with water.

For whom This activity is ideal for groups of friends, families with teenagers aged 14 and above, and companies seeking team-building exercises. It requires physical agility, quick movement, and the ability to crouch and run on uneven ground. Not recommended for individuals with limited mobility or allergies to biodegradable paint.

Local context The Jerte Valley is renowned for its rich natural heritage and cultural traditions, including cherry cultivation and transhumance. Parque Aventura El Torno integrates this natural legacy into outdoor activities that connect visitors with the local landscape and community.
